Extreme Rules – How to Win Predictions

First, you should all be rooting AGAINST @TheSupremeForce. He’s the title holder, meaning this prediction challenge can be a lot easier for him.

Whoever has the most matches correct is in the running for the title. If @TheSupremeForce ties with the most matches correct, the title defaults back to him without going into a tie-breaker. If he does not have the most matches correct and it’s a tie otherwise, then the tie-breakers come into play.

Tie-breaker 1 is up first. If that does not make the final decision, then tie-breaker 2 will be the settling factor.

So you should all boo @TheSupremeForce, cross your fingers, and hope you made the right choices!

Don’t forget, the winner gets a copy of Shawn Decker’s My Pet Virus for the Kindle. If you do not have a Kindle there is a free app for your computer or most phones. If @TheSupremeForce wins or Shawn Decker wins, Shawn will be holding an alternate contest on his blog so that the book can still be given away!

Thanks everyone for participating, all 53 entrants!

Extreme Rules: Cody Rhodes vs. Big Show Predictions

WINNER: CODY RHODES

Big Show vs. Cody Rhodes

1. I’m going to dare to be different, and hope that the WWE does the right thing (ha). Winner: Cody Rhodes

2. While Show just got the title at Mania, he doesn’t need it. If anything, he kills it by being too big to give him a proper feud. Please don’t let them continue this Bumbling Cody angle. Winner: Cody Rhodes

3. Again, another feud going no where and helping neither man.  Big Show wins, and will probably just go and fight against Kane next.  Because that’s what you do with both guys when there’s nothing else to do with them.  Cody should get out of this story, and away from a title, to set up Money in the Bank.  I really think he’s a lock for winning one of those titles this year. Winner: Big Show

4. I really hope they have bigger plans for Rhodes but after his recent losses they look to be burying him. Winner: Big Show

5. I really don’t know how this will go but I REALLY want Cody to win, so, w/ much wishful thinking…Winner: Rhodes

6. Come on, son.

Winner: Big Show

7. After weeks of “embarrassing” “clips”, Cody’ll get his comeuppan… oh wait, he’s the heel. Nevermind. Winner: Big Show

8. I’ll say it. I don’t like Cody Rhodes. I know he’s good in the ring, and I know bitches love him, but I just don’t like him. I still see him as the jobber who teamed with Bob Holly, and then turned on him to tag with Ted DiBiase, Jr. I don’t think Big Show can lose this match, unless it becomes a TNA Ultimate X match at the last second, or if big brother Dustin Rhodes comes out and electrocutes Big Show.
Winner by WMD (I wish it was a stolen Beautiful Disaster, but that’s why it’s a dream): Big Show

9. This is actually the toughest call, for me.  Did they temporarily hotshot the title onto Big Show at WrestleMania for the feel-good babyface win, with plans to put it back on Cody?  Or, do they have other plans in store for both guys?  I honestly have no idea and I can see it, either way.  I’m going to metaphorically Two-Face it, call heads, and say . . . Winner: Cody Rhodes.

10. I’m going with Cody here. Show got his Wrestlemania win, time for Cody to get his title back. Winner: Rhodes

11. It’s time for Cody to get some revenge, and regain his precious belt. WINNER: Cody Rhodes

12. Winner: Big Show

13. Rhodes I feel will win very unfairly which will embarrass the big show… Winner: Cody Rhodes

14. Because Cody hasn’t won sh** since losing the strap.. oh wait Championship Winner: Big Show

15. Neither result would surprise me.  Because I’ve already picked two title changes I’ll go for Big Show retains.

Winner: Big Show

16. Winner: Big Show

17. Cody gets a measure of victory against the giant.  The feud just feels flat to me.  Belt goes back to David after being the victor over Goliath.
WINNER: Cody Rhodes

18. Here is to hoping Cody will be involved in the world title picture for the summer. Winner Big Show

19. *sighs again* Great. We get to witness the hilarity of the Big Show’s wacky antics even further as IC champion. Winner: Big Show

20. I really really really want Cody to win because Show is just hideously bad. But I don’t think he will Winner: Big Show

21. Rhodes. Another Invisible Champion falls. But Big Show’s victory is immortalized forever. Sorry Cody. You win here though! Winner: Cody Rhodes

23. Well, this feud is a thing, I’m going to make this simple. Big Show will defeat Rhodes so Cody can go on to bigger, brighter things.
Winner: Big Show

24. I don’t see a reason for Show to lose it right now.

Winner: Big Show

26. Because see above. Winner: Cody Rhodes

27. Winner: Cody Rhodes

28. This is an interesting one. Big Show for some god forsaken reason has won the IC title at Mania and now is basically doing to Cody what Cody did to Show. Embarrass him. I wouldn’t be all that surprised if Cody won the title back here.
Winner : Big Show

29. Well, this could be partly due to my general dislike for Big Show, but I want to believe he only got the belt to hit that milestone it gave him. Now they need to put that back on Cody and give him back the momentum he had a few months ago, until they’re ready to make him into something more. Winner: Cody Rhodes

30. Winner: Big Show

31. This is really a throwaway match and this feud really does nothing for either guy. Cody should be in the top mix and the big show should be contending for a world title, because I think there are going in a direction with a solid crop of mid carders, Im going with
Winner: Cody Rhodes

32. Cody defeats the slobbering goon to reclaim the Intercontinental title!Winner: Cody Rhodes

34. Winner: Big Show

36. Re-made white belt to fit around Big Show. Winner: Big Show

37. Winner: Big Show

38. WWE sh**s on the midcard quite often. Winner: Big Show

39. There are a lot of heels on Smackdown right now, so I would expect a face to win. 

Winner: Big Show

40. **Winner: Cody Rhodes

41. Why isn’t Alberto Del Rio in this match? Oh right, we need a rematch, don’t we? Big Show is being pulled in quite a few directions right now. Recently, he teamed with Khali to take on the tag champs in a non title match. He wrestled Del Rio and lost. This match has me so confused! It’s time for Cody to move on to bigger and better things. Is there even a stipulation to this match? I guess not. Is it possible to be DQ’d? I don’t know. Screw it! Winner: The wearer of the biggest shower cap on the planet, Big Show.

42. I don’t like Show having the title, he’s not doing anything with it, so I hope it goes back to Cody and he can get into a decent feud with someone his own size. Winner: Cody Rhodes

44. Winner: Cody Rhodes

46. Winner: Cody Rhodes

47. They need to move Cody on to better things. Winner: Cody

48. Winner: Big Show

50. I’d like to see Cody Rhodes win it back right here. Show is useless with the title, where I think Cody can have a meaningful feud over the IC belt with someone.
Winner: Cody Rhodes.

51. Big Show deserves to keep the title a little longer

Winner: Big Show

52. Forgot this one was here. But the IC title’s fate will be decided via roulette wheel (I am hoping for texas deathmatch a la cactus jack vs Vader back in the day) Big show probably the favorite in at least 90% of the matche types that will be available. Cody wins back the ic championship adding to big show’s list of wwe embarrassments. Winner: Cody Rhodes

53.  Not only should these two never have been paired off in a match in the first place, but they should not be still involved with each other at all. Both need to move on to a new chapter. Winner: Big Show

54. As much as I love Cody, I don’t see him winning this, no matter what the stipulation is. Unless it’s a handicap match.

Winner: Big Show.

55. I believe that Big Show will unfortunately retain. Winner: Big Show

56. I want Cody to win, but at the same time I would rather him be going for the World Heavyweight Championship instead. I want to see at least one title switch hands though. Winner: Cody Rhodes

57. It’s too soon for Show to lose the title. Not much else to say about it.
Winner: Big Show

58. I don’t really see this one going in Cody’s favour at all… Winner: Big Show

59. cody, because big show is never champion for long Winner: Cody Rhodes

60. Winner: Big Show

61. I’ve got a bad feeling about this. Winner : Big Show

Extreme Rules: Randy Orton vs. Kane Predictions

WINNER: RANDY ORTON

Randy Orton vs. Kane

1. I love Orton. I love Kane. I do not enjoy this feud. Both would do better against other opponents. The feud won’t end here. Winner: Randy Orton

2. They threw Paul Bearer into a freezer. Everyone loses this feud. Winner: Randy Orton

3. Ugh, I so don’t care.  This story is doing absolutely nothing for me, or for either wrestler.  What the hell is the stip?  Falls Count Anywhere.  My biggest hope is that its all over after this.  I know I shouldn’t assume future stories or where people are going, because wrestling doesn’t always make sense.  I’m going to guess Randy Orton.  Brock beats Cena and moves on to another person he wants to destroy.  That person will be Randy Orton, and thus he needs to win here and look strong going into that feud.  Winner:  Randy Orton.

4. is it just me or does no one else realize that kane is still the crazy big red machine? Orton does not need to win to look good… Kane does Winner: Kane

5. THIS is your potty break. Orton gets his win back from WM. Winner: Orton

6. Seeing as I’ve got a lot of faces winning and I’m not quite certain with this one, I’ll go with Kane.

Winner: Kane

7. This feud’s still going on?! Anyways, I predict Orton will win because he always wins his feuds eventually. Winner: Randy Orton

8. They’re doing a good job with this entire feud, bringing in Cowboy Bob Orton and Paul Bearer, and because of that, I think they’re going to stretch this angle for 1 more PPV, which means that Randy will win this.
Winner, via RKO OUT OF SEEMINGLY NOFKINGWHERE: Randy Orton

9. *exasperated sigh*.  Winner: Randy Orton.

10. Damn, this match again. Winner: Orton

11. Kane won at ‘Mania, Orton actually still has a future in the company.  Pretty simple layout.  WINNER: Orton

12. Winner: Randy Orton

13. Orton to win because I want him too lol Winner: Orton

14. Because who cares.. and Kane lost last time on regular TV last time Winner: Kane

15. A year ago the concept of Orton losing two PPV in a row was non-existent but he did to Henry last year.  Still can’t see beyond RKO.

Winner: Randy Orton

16. Winner: Orton

17. Do I care about this match more than I did at Mania?  No.  Is the story any better?  Slightly.  Do I think the feud is going anywhere?  Not really.  Kane hurts Cowboy Bob, Orton hurts Bearer, Kane hurts Bearer in his usual on/off relationship with his “family”.  Kane seems to be the more focused of the pair, as his “dad” isn’t laid up from his injuries.  Orton might be in need of a small breather himself after this match.
WINNER: Kane

18. Winner: Randy Orton

19. Kane winning at WM was a shock, and I doubt he’ll do it again. Orton wins with an RKO ‘out of nowhere’. Winner: Randy Orton

20. Orton will get his win back from Mania. Whatever happens, I’ll be loading up on snacks during this. Winner: Orton

21. Randy Orton gets his WrestleMania revenge. But Kane’s victory is immortalized forever. Sorry Randy. You win here though! Winner: Randy Orton

23. Winner: Kane

24. Kane won at mania, lost on Smackdown, now he’s kind of running from orton. Hard to say who has the upper hand, but I’ll go with Kane for the win.

Winner: Kane

26. Because I want to. Winner: Kane

27. Winner: Randy Orton

28. I honestly could care less about this match. They had a good match on SD a few weeks back tho. I expect this match to be more of the same that we’ve seen between these two just with the FCA stip tho.
Winner : Randy Orton

29. I don’t see this feud going any further, and given the build I think the Orton victory is the obvious outcome. I was surprised Kane got the win at Mania, but now it’s time for Orton to get the win and move onto something new. Winner: Randy Orton

30. Winner: Randy Orton

31. Pretty simple here Kane won one and Randy Orton won one, so the smart decision is that Orton wins with him moving towards feuds with either ADR or the whc.
Winner: Randy Orton

32. Randy Orton. But does anyone really care? I sure as hell don’t. This whole program seems thrown together. It seems like after Cena / Kane they said “hey Kane needs somebody to work with now and Randy gets hurt all the time…… lets throw em together and see how it goes!”Winner: Randy Orton

34. Winner: Kane

36. Will kick fk out of Lesnar soon. Winner: Randy Orton

37. Winner: Randy Orton

38. He lost at WM and needs to look strong. When has he lately lost at a PPV twice in a row? Winner: Randy Orton

39. I expect Orton to win this one, since Kane won at Mania. I think the feud will continue for a while, though. 

Winner: Orton.

40. **Winner: Randy

41. What did I tell you; it was the elemental battle of Wrestlemania! Don’t call me a liar, you’re still wondering what was up with those blue Randy Orton shorts, but you know. That’s right you know, cuz I told you. But at Extreme Rules, this is the stipulation that they should have had at Wrestlemania. Falls Count Anywhere! This match is pretty well evenly matched, the stipulation favors really any of these wrestlers, especially since Randy can pull and RKO anywhere and Kane, well, you know what he can do. This time, I think Kane has the one up here. At least, if they don’t want to totally ruin the momentum they gave him when he came back, he needs to win. Winner: Isaac Yankem, D.D.S. or Kane if you prefer.

42. Leave both Kane and Orton with a win and move on from this pointless feud. Winner: Randy Orton

44. Winner: Randy Orton

46. Winner: Randy Orton

47. Another crapfest? I think Randy wins and we all move on. Winner: Orton

48. Winner: Kane

50. No doubt Orton wins here, I see no point in Kane winning. But what I do hope is that this turns Orton heel, and that Sheamus/Orton is a SummerSlam match.
Winner: Randy Orton

51. Um, because Kane is just…..scary

Winner: Kane

52. Orton goes over in this one maybe an rko off the stage. Winner: Randy Orton

53. My gut feeling tells me that sometime in the future he’ll get tied in with ‘Taker somehow so he can’t be looking weak. Winner: Kane

54. Both of these men have a reason to need to win, revenge for Orton, closure for Kane. Kane, unfortunately, has the weaker of the sides. Plus Randy is more of a psycho than Kane.

Winner: Good ole Soot-Arms Randy Orton.

55. I believe Orton will avenge his loss against Kane. Winner: Randy Orton

56.Orton is obviously upset about what Kane did to his dad, but Kane is a monster who doesn’t care. Winner: Kane

57. Orton lost at Mania and then Kane got his dad involved. Something tells me they’re going to go with the usual Orton overcomes everything and is boring and stale.
Winner: Randy Orton

58. This one is hard for me to determine. It could go either way, but gut instinct tells me Orton will take it. Winner: Randy Orton

59. orton, because they won’t make him lose twice to kane two ppv’s in a row.Winner: Randy Orton

60. Winner: Randy Orton

61. I don’t really care but I think Orton will win to maybe set up a feud with Lesnar. Winner: Randy Orton

Extreme Rules: CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho Predictions

WINNER: CM PUNK

CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho

1. They do not know how to use Jericho properly, they didn’t when he was about to leave the last time and they aren’t going to do it this time, whether he’s leaving or not. He’s here to put someone else over. Winner: CM Punk

2. I can’t stand Punk anymore, but I don’t see them taking the Title away from him just yet. It’s too bad, because Jericho is six thousand times better. Winner: CM Punk

3. I think Jericho has to win this one so there’s somewhere to go.  If Punk beats him again, then Punk has no story and Jericho has no reason to move on.  I really think Chris Jericho has to win this match and the title just to justify this current WWE run.  Winner:  Chris Jericho.

4. Did they pay Jericho all the money to come back to be a glorified jobber? Come on they have time to put the belt on him and have a nice heel run before he drops it again. That and please this feud with Punk is getting old. Winner: Chris Jericho

5. I hate to say it because there WILL be a riot because Punk is going to lose in Chicago, not that I want him to, but I’m calling hijinks. Winner: Jericho

6. Jericho came back to “make” Punk, so yeah.

Winner: CM Punk

7. Jericho lost at the last PPV, so I’m going to hazard a guess and say he wins here, just to piss Chicago off more. Winner: Chris Jericho

8. I’m leaning towards Y2J on this one, for the simple fact that I don’t think they would spam us with Y2J PPV WWE Championship matches and not have him win one, but I think CM Punk is going to win, for the sole fact that they want to bring legitimacy back to the title, after changing hands like 94 times in 2011.
Winner via stolen Walls of Jericho: CM Punk

9. I believe Jericho came back mostly just to solidify Punk as a mainstay in the main event scene.  I don’t think it was ever in the plan for him to win the title, and I don’t think he wants to.  He’s always been selfless that way, and I think we’ll see that play out, here.  Winner: CM Punk.

10. Punk is going over. Jericho is just hanging out until his sh**ty band tours, I don’t expect anything from him. Winner: Punk

11. If Jericho didn’t win at ‘Mania, the chances of him winning here are slim.  WINNER: CM Punk

12. Winner: CM Punk

13. Would make sense for punk to win but I think Jericho will snatch it and win! Winner: Chris Jericho

14. Because… who knows.. Punk in Chicago Winner: CM Punk

15. The crowd will be amazing for this one.  I can’t see a reason to take the title off Punk and Jericho doesn’t need it

Winner: CM Punk

16. Winner: Chris Jericho

17. These two are at it again, in what’s going to be the top of the card as far as quality.  Compelling story being told here, especially with the inclusion of Punk’s family into the mix of the storyline as well as the fact that they will be in attendance.  Expect this to “go yard”.  I see Jericho winning this one after verbally and physically wearing Punk down to a nub over the past two months, and while Punk may slink off into his cubby hole for a couple of weeks to heal, he won’t be gone or down for long.
WINNER: Chris Jericho

18. Winner: Chris Jericho

19. Last year’s MITB established that Punk will not lose in Chicago. Punk wins with GTS on steel steps. Winner: CM Punk

20. Punk has to beat Jericho after being beat down so much. Winner: CM Punk

21. Winner: CM Punk

23. This feud has been really good. With Jericho calling Punk a bastard and proclaming he is Best in the World and Punk wanting revenge, in Punk’s hometown in a street fight, Punk will defeat Jericho to retain his belt.
Winner: Punk

24. Jericho will leave soon.

Winner: CM Punk

26. Because Chicago will riot otherwise. I sincerely thought this crappy family matters angle was merely the dues the Punk family had to pay for their Wrestlemania tickets. Now they’re pushing it further, it’s even more stupid. Just give me the match and skip the stupid soap opera. Winner: CM Punk

27. Winner: CM Punk

28. Punk’s walking into this match the champion and hometown guy.  I expect the crowd to eat Jericho alive and then some.  I think this match will top their Mania match with the street fight stip and all the pent up rage Punk has with Jericho. 
Winner : Chicago Made Punk

29. I want Jericho to win, but I can’t see it happening, as much I feel it needs to. Jeircho came back in January, and has done nothing but fail this entire time. He didn’t win the Rumble, he didn’t win at Elimination Chamber and he didn’t win at Wrestlemania. This feud has really run its course, and while WWE has been known to drag feuds out, I think there needs to be a new challenger at this point. Winner: CM Punk

30. Winner: Chris Jericho

31. These guys should go out there and have a pretty good long match. Not only can these two guys work their ass off but they can get you involved in the story they are telling very well. I think we see Punks family get involved and it costs CM Punk the championship.
Winner : Chris Jericho

32. CM Punk. Chicago crown super pumped! No way Jericho walks away with the title. Winner: CM Punk

34. Winner: CM Punk

36. To make me come. Winner: Chris Jericho

37. Winner: CM Punk

38. They need to further the feud for Over the Limit PPV. Winner: Chris Jericho

39. Last year, Punk won in Chicago in front of an extremely hot crowd. This year, he’ll lose to Jericho in his hometown in front of his family, bringing the intensity of the Punk-Jericho rivalry to a fever-pitch. 

Winner: Jericho

40. **Winner: Chris Jericho

41. Wow, this feud as quickly become the best the WWE has to offer right now (Fk Lesnar/Cena.). Jericho has made this match super, super personal, and every fan knows that we’re in for a Summer of Punk. Jericho has Punk angry, and I think that strategy is going to get the best of Punk this time, but really they’ve set in for a long feud, at least until Jericho’s contract runs out this summer (I don’t care if it’s in Punk’s hometown and it’s a street fight, fk that!). Winner: Lite-Brite CEO, Chris Jericho

42. I’m kind of tired of this feud and it’s known knowledge Jericho has side projects, I don’t see him getting the title for a short run. Plus it’s in Chicago and I don’t see Punk losing in a Chicago street fight (Kind of bummed it won’t be as epic as previous street fights.) However, I hope this is the end of this feud. Winner: CM Punk

44. Winner: CM Punk

46. Winner: Chris Jericho

47. This has been a confusing little mess that they have been put into. Stupid story, saved only by great storytellers. Winner: Jericho

48. Winner: CM Punk

50. The toughest one of the night for me. Not sure why their worst promos are for the take-home shows before PPVs but the sobriety test was brutal. I’d love to see Jericho win here. Maybe have Punk or another face take the title back as soon as Fozzy goes on tour.
Winner: Jericho 

51. Punk has showed the “smarts” over Jericho….much to my dismay. My liking of Jericho has waned somewhat too.

Winner: It hurts to say this but CM Punk

52. Anyone else think this feud should have been a bar room brawl? just me? chi-town streetfight doesn’t really sound like an anaconda vice or walls of jericho will be the deciding factor. I predict punk makes jericho go to sleep sending the ayatolla of rock and rolla back to dream land where his  peer pressure actually works. Winner: CM Punk

53. Jericho has other projects coming up soon. Perhaps he can come up with more viral videos or clever catchphrases for his 2020 return? Winner: CM Punk

54. If they really want to bring more heat on Jericho AND extend one of the better feuds they’ve had in a while, what better way to do it than in front of Punk’s home town and his entire family?

Winner: Jericho

55. Winner: CM Punk

56. Punk has the intensity and I just don’t see him losing. Winner: CM Punk

57. Jericho is leaving soon to go on Tour with Fozzy so I don’t think giving him the title right now would be a very smart move.
Winner: CM Punk

58. I don’t see Jericho winning this, but it’s gonna be a great match nonetheless. Winner: CM Punk

59. because punk’s family will turn on him.Winner: Chris Jericho

60. Winner: CM Punk

61. Punk again. An epic Chicago Street Fight should favour the champ, but you never know with perverse Vince. Still, Jericho has Fozzy to attend with this summer so Punk it is. Winner: CM Punk

Extreme Rules: Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan Predictions

WINNER: SHEAMUS

Sheamus vs. Daniel Bryan

1. I think there is more to be done with Bryan if he’s not the winner. His anger is what is driving the character now, anger and ego. Winner: Sheamus

2. Sheamus needs a much longer reign than he’s had thus far. Otherwise, his yearlong push was pointless. Bryan needs to go do something else. Winner: Sheamus

3. 2/3 Falls match.  Which almost always goes all three falls.  Assuming such, we need to figure both men will get pins but who will be the one to get the final one?  Daniel doesn’t need a title to get over any more.  In fact he’s more enjoyable without it.  But Sheamus still isn’t the star that WWE wants him to be.  He needs to get a few wins in a row to look like the new leader in WWE.  Winner: Sheamus.

4. The crowd loves Bryan regardless of a title. Winner: Sheamus

5. Don’t know how this will go but I’m hoping this last longer than the last one. I think Sheamus will take Falls 1 and 3 while Bryan will get the middle one. Winner: Sheamus

6. Sheamus’ll win, but at least it’ll be a worthwhile match this time.

Winner: Sheamus

7. First, I hope it doesn’t go under 18 seconds. I predict D-Bry will lose in some screwy way, making C-Town pissed. Winner: Sheamus

8. Yo dawg I want mah boy D-Bry to win this sh** (He in mah fave five) but I think they gonna try and kill da buzz around da man who lost his title at WRASSLEMANIA. Sheamus (who also in mah fave five) is gonna win, but mah boy is not holdin’ the title for very long.
Winner: Sheamus

9. I would LOVE for Daniel Bryan to win the World Title back.  And he will.  But, not here.  The stipulation favors him and he’s been SO confident that he’s going to win.  Over-confident heel = losing heel.  Winner: Sheamus.

10. If the WWE was smart, they’d put the belt back on Bryan. This looks like an opportunity to give a big fk you to the fans. Winner: Sheamus

11. Either Sheamus wins this cleanly, or AJ helps D-Bry regain the title.  I guess the latter.  WINNER: Bryan

12. Winner: Sheamus

13. Hate to say it but think sheamus will win as I can’t see him losing after he didn’t tap out to the Yes lock on RAW! Also think Bryan will say yes 8 times YES!  Winner: Sheamus

14. We’ll stick with Sheamus, cuz people love him, and Bryan doesn’t need a belt as long as he has YES!! Winner: Sheamus

15. I think if Bryan wasn’t getting such good reactions this would be a foregone conclusion.  However I think they may now be having second thoughts about Sheamus.  Therefore I’ll go with Bryan to win though it is just as likely that they make Sheamus win 2-0 in about a minute!

Winner: Daniel Bryan

16. Winner: Sheamus

17. Sheamus has had a bland title run so far, because the most compelling character is his opponent, Daniel Bryan, and DB’s ex(?!) AJ.  They could have given the belt to anyone, and it still wouldn’t be what we need to make me care about anyone other than Bryan in this feud.  However, someone needs to come to AJ’s rescue (watch for a run in), and get the belt focus off Bryan for right now.  Sheamus deserves a little more spotlight than this.
WINNER: Sheamus

18. Winner: Sheamus

19. *sigh*. Daniel-san ain’t gonna win this. Sheamus wins 2-1, with Bryan cheating to get a fall. Winner: Sheamus

20. Sheamy is going to win. Don’t think they were even going to give DBD a rematch initially until Yesamania. Winner: Sheamus

21. Bryan. Post-WM he has reached the zenith of his powers. Sheamus is an invisible champion, and right now everyone but Punk is an invisible champion. Look for Bryan to get pinned in under 30 seconds in the first fall, though! Winner: Daniel Bryan

23. Just like Rhodes/Show, this is something that is happening. But unlike Rhodes/Show, this entertaining. With Bryan wanting revenge from him losing in 18 seconds at Wrestlemania and Sheamus proving he is better than Bryan, anyone could win this so…
Fall 1: Sheamus
Fall 2: Bryan
Fall 3: Sheamus
Winner: Sheamus

24. Bryan will win a fall, then Sheamus will brogue kick him, and then sheamus will win the last fall.

Winner: Sheamus

26. By 2 falls to 1, because DBD fans of old and new are not pissed off enough yet. Winner: Sheamus

27. Winner: Sheamus

28. Sheamus in 18 seconds managed to win the world title back at Mania… (sad face here) He’s only held the title about a month so I see him winning here possibly 2 straight falls.
Winner : Sheamus

29. As much as I’m a fan of Sheamus, Bryan is insanely over right now and they should try to capitalize on it by giving Bryan the title. I don’t see that happening though, and I think we’ll see Sheamus hold the belt through the summer. Winner: Sheamus

30. Winner: Sheamus

31. Anyways, I see them doing a 10 min match where Daniel Bryan gets the first fall.

For the second fall I see Sheamus hitting a Brogue kick for the second fall. The third fall I see Bryan going for a Brogue kick of his own. He will miss and Sheamus will counter with a Brogue Kick.
Winner: Sheamus

32. Daniel Bryan for the win. Should not have lost at WM. Crowd in Chicago will be SUPER hot for this one and Sheamus will hear about it.Winner: Daniel Bryan

34. Winner: Sheamus

36. NO! Winner: Sheamus

37. Winner: Sheamus

38. He needs to develop as the face of Smackdown, and Daniel Bryan is more over after WM than expected. Winner: Sheamus

39. Sheamus wins via interference by AJ, playing up her emotional volatility and portraying her as the crazy ex-girlfriend. 

Winner: Sheamus 

40. Not much to say. I can’t see Sheamus dropping the title quite right now.

**Winner: Sheamus

41. I thought about making this blurb last 18 seconds, but I think that’s overused. Or is it? This is the match that was taken away from wrestling fans, and this time with a 2 out of 3 falls match, you’re guaranteed at least 15 minutes, hopefully. Amid a barrage of yeses, kicks to faces, boots to…no wait, not those. How’s that championship title run going there Rock? Oh wait…did that hit below the belt? This match is practically guaranteed to be good. Casting it as a 2 out of 3 falls match would seem to serve Bryan better, considering his fighting style. With that said, It’s not Sheamus’ time to give up the championship yet. Which then suddenly breaks into a who’s really Irish match against John Cena, where he is decimated. Yeah I know I’m grasping at straws, but green is my favorite color. Winner: “The Real Irish Guy” Sheamus…

42. Bryan is doing an amazing job as a heel and as much as I’d like to see him take the title back, Sheamus has just started his run and I don’t think it’s time for him to lose just yet. Winner: Sheamus

44. Winner: Daniel Bryan

46. Winner: Sheamus

47. I think they wise up and Bryan wins in questionable fashion. Winner: Bryan

48. Winner: Sheamus

50. To say the least, so far it’s been a pretty uninspiring run by Sheamus. Especially compared with how over Daniel Bryan is right now. Sheamus has been a victim of booking here, as Bryan getting screwed over is the storyline over Sheamus rising to the top. I think they end the feud here for now, but Sheamus needs to step up his game.
Winner: Sheamus

51. I find Bryan annoying and just love The Great White.

Winner: Sheamus

52. 2 out of 3 falls I see bryan coming to the ring with king bookers broom, falls go bryan sheamus Bryan. Winner: Daniel Bryan

53.  Daniel Bryan should win so that A J can begin to stalk him with challengers who she represents somehow, but that’s too much logic for WWE. So Sheamus for the win. Winner: Daniel Bryan

54. Daniel is completely over with the crowd. The title coming off of him is what set it off. On the reverse side, Sheamus is still over, but not as much as Daniel. Keeping the title away from Daniel while giving the pair a much better match than WM could get both of them up there.

Winner: Sheamus

55. Winner: Daniel Bryan

56. Daniel Bryan is over no matter what. I’m think Daniel will get the first fall and Sheamus gets 2 and 3. Winner: Sheamus

57. Sheamus is being given quite a push at the moment so I think it’s too soon for him to lose the title, plus Daniel Bryan is the most over guy right now, with or without it.
Winner: Sheamus

58. I’ve got Sheamus winning this one. I don’t see him losing the title just yet. If it’s 18 seconds again though, I’ll flip my sh**. Winner: Sheamus

59. because he is already in his next feud with ADR.Winner: Sheamus

60. Winner: Sheamus

61. Unfortunately Sheamus. Very early into his run as champ so I can’t see him losing this. Winner :Sheamus

Extreme Rules: Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena Predictions

WINNER: JOHN CENA

Brock Lesnar vs. John Cena

1. Brock Lesnar did not come back to lose, not even to Super Cena. Winner: Brock Lesnar

2. If Lesnar doesn’t win this match, Vince just wasted a lot of money on him. Winner: Brock Lesnar

3. Cena lost to the Rock.  He lost to Lord Tensai.  And now he faces this destructive force known as Brock Lesnar.  Its Brock’s first match back in WWE and he’s going to have to look good.  Plus he has to get built up to a title shot.  I think the story of 2012, and maybe going into 2013 is going to be a John Cena losing streak.  He will get beat down and then built back up.  Winner: Brock Lesnar.

4. I think for this to continue Cena has to win. this will keep it where Lesnar can stay a heel and continue to try to go after him to prove he is better. Winner: John Cena

5. This should be an interesting match. But since I’m a homer,  hubby is a former Gopher like Brock, and I HATE Cena. Winner: Lesnar

6. Brock needs to come out the strongest, because he just came back and needs momentum. Cena can go fk off.

Winner: Brock Lesnar

7. Cena’s lost at the last few PPV’s, I believe, so this will be the one where he wins again and Brock goes nutzo. Win: Cena

8. I love Brock being back. With that said, I cannot foresee a good storyline they can put him in anywhere with anybody that would make a good match happen. I think he should just be running around, effing everybody up, and not really having matches. I think Lesnar wins, Cena cries, and John Cena’s Dad has a heart attack in his recliner at home.
Winner via F5: Bork Lazer

9. I don’t see Brock losing his first match back.  And Cena is more interesting than he’s been in forever BECAUSE he’s struggling with self-confidence.  If he wins, that story just stops and we’re back to the status quo like it’s an episode of “Family Guy”.  Winner: Brock Lesnar.

10. Lesnar is going over. People need to enjoy Brock, because SuperMegaUltraCena is on the horizon. #Gross… Winner: Brock Lesnar

11. I’m thinking the plan is to have Cena on a “Big Match Losing Streak,” where he HOPEFULLY dynamically changes from the experience.  WINNER: Brock Lesnar

12. Winner: Brock Lesnar

13. Can’t see cena beating Lesnar who signed a $5million contract with WWE. Also Lesnar losing his first match since UFC? Not happening!  Winner: Brock Lesnar

14. Because Screw Lesnar Winner: John Cena

15. This is an interesting one….Lesnar will look weak if he loses this considering the build up, however Cena will look weak if he loses another big match?  If we had heard rumors that Cena was leaving I would go for a Brock win but somehow I see this ending up as some sort of no contest.

Winner: No Contest

16. Winner: Brock Lesnar

17. Cena needs a good beat down, not because I think he sucks, but because I think he needs to be broken down before getting built back up.  Super-Cena is dying/dead, and we’re seeing the rebirth.
WINNER: Brock Lesnar

18. Winner: Brock Lesnar

19. It seems unlikely that they would bring Brock back to lose in his first match. Winner: Brock Lesnar

20. I think Cena has to win this, but either way there will be shenanigans. Winner: John Cena

21.  Lesnar. But Cena will eventually get him back. Brock can’t lose straight out of the gate, even though I wish Cena would squash him Brodus Clay style. Winner: Brock Lesnar

23. This being Bork (Yes, I will be calling Brock Bork) first match in 8 years, Bork will be rusty, but due to him being the raging heel, Brock will defeat Cena, hopefully starting the Cena heel turn.
Winner: Bork Lazer

24. Cena’s current storyline is losing all these big matches. Also, Brock needs to win to stay ”legit” and move on to storylines with Rock for example.

Winner: Brock Lesnar

26. Because Cena is a fking martyr now. Winner: Brock Lesnar

27. Winner: John Cena

28. Cena hasnt won a high profiled PPV match in some time and I don’t see that changing here with the returning B0rk Laz0r.  Expect a fight from Cena tho but Brock will ultimately overpower Cena.
Winner : B0rk Laz0r 

29. I want Cena to win, the fact that he lost to The Rock was annoying enough, a loss to Lesnar does nothing to help rebuild Cena, which he needs after the past few months. But to expect Lesnar to lose his first match in how many years? It’s not gonna happen. They’ve invested a ridiculous amount of money into Lesnar, they wouldn’t do that just to have him put over Cena and destroy any momentum one gains from a crappy, overplayed hype video and destroying a interviewer. Winner: Brock Lesnar

30. Winner: Brock Lesnar

31. Whether Cena leaves until Summerslam after this match, or just have Lesnar come in and just flat out beat Cena. Brock Lesnar is the only guy that should win this one. Added to thefact that the show has Lesnars name in it, its the only logical finish.
Winner: Brock Lesnar

32. Brock wins. Another crushing loss for Cena!Winner: Brock Lesnar

34. Winner: John Cena

36. Bork. Winner: Bork Laser

37. Winner: Brock Lesnar

38. Just like Cena had to win at WM, he has to win at Extreme Rules, but won’t to further his storyline. Winner: Brock Lesnar

39. Although I don’t expect Brock will be heavily involved for long, I do anticipate him to be around for a while longer. That would only make sense if he wins. He would lose all credibility if he lost after talking so much sh**. 

Winner: Brock Lesnar 

40. WWE doesnt like having John lose cleanly. There is almost always an explanation as to why he loses. Mainly, interference of some sort. When Edge told John to wake up, and to get his confidence back, that in itself was a nudge to the WWE universe that John is still suffering the effects of his loss. Here’s how I see it: John is still upset about his loss on the Grandest Stage of Them All. He’s not 100%. He can’t quite find his rhythm. So, not fully prepared, he loses to Brock. Following this match is a string of loses. The downfall of John Cena. I dig it, personally, and I think that’s the angle that they’re going to use.

**Winner: Brock Lesnar

41. Is it just me or does John Cena look like a giant leprechaun now with that green shirt and hat? I mean, If he’s going to wear that all year it should be shamrock shakes all around. Wow, ok…focus. We all knew Brock was going to be coming back, we just didn’t know when. For Brock, he says its about building up a brand. Ummm, is WWE not a successful brand? According to the Rock and everybody on Twitter, fk man this sh** trends. But hey, we still have to build that up. Ok, so John Cena has more to lose in this match than he did with the Rock. If he loses, well, lets be honest, he can’t lose. Brock isn’t going to be around for that long, and more than anything they had to bring in somebody that could restore Cena’s image. Brock can potentially do that. You know he can, I mean, hasn’t he hyped himself up enough since he returned. Winner: John “shifting to lucky-charms” Cena.

42. Cena needs a win to bring him out of his funk and I think him winning will bring the Lesnar/Cena feud to another level. Winner: John Cena

44. Winner: Brock Lesnar

46. Winner: Brock Lesnar

47. I pick Lesnar to win, continuing the downward spiral of Cena, hoping it leads to tweaking his character. Winner: Lesnar

48. Winner: Brock Lesnar

50. There’s no doubt that Lesnar wins here. It just has to be completely decisive. This is the start of a narrative for Cena and Brock comes back with a bang.
Winner: Brock Lesnar

51. I’m thinking many will favour Lesnar so am going for the underdog on this one.

Winner: John Cena

52. Cena hasn’t really disproved brocks theory of cena being scared ,at least not this year anyhow (see cena/brock circa 2003) Brock taps he doesn’t look like a terror though if cena taps, mr unbreakable is humbled 2 consecutive chi-town ppvs. I Am taking Brock by hook or by crook. preferrably by brocklock. Winner: Brock Lesnar

53. The “Tear down John Cena while simultaneously building him up for the children” saga will continue. Winner: Brock Lesnar

54. After Cena was beaten by Lord Albe- Prince Ten- That dude with tribal tattoos and awkward facial piercings who ‘debuted’ a couple weeks ago, he kinda needs this to build his character back up.

Winner: Cena

55. Winner: Brock Lesnar

56. Hoping Cena wins because I hate Brock, but it seems silly to build Brock up and make him lose his first match. Winner: Brock Lesnar

57.I highly doubt Lesnar will lose his first match back after his return has been made into such a big deal.
Winner: Lesnar

58. Brock’s fresh rejoining the company, and for him to lose this early from his return doesn’t make sense. He needs the momentum.Winner: Brock Lesnar

59. because they just signed him back, and want him to seem like no one can beat himWinner: Brock Lesnar

60. Winner: Brock Lesnar

61. Lesnar should win and put Cena out of the picture for a while. Lesnar surely won’t be booked to lose this early in his programme. Winner : Lesnar
